I don't know what time it is.
Zhen Tian was awakened by a whimpering sound. Her head felt like it was filled with mush, completely dazed and confused.
With difficulty, she opened her eyes, feeling that her vision was a little blurry.
After regaining her senses, she looked around at her surroundings.
The large concrete pillar was pressing down on her legs. Although she couldn't feel the pain when it hit her, she could imagine the severe damage her legs would suffer.
She didn't even know whether to be happy or sad.
Fortunately, only his leg was hit.
It's heartbreaking that her leg has suffered so much along with her.
She fell into a deep sleep shortly after being hit, and had no recollection of the subsequent aftershocks.
But seeing the large gap between the fallen pillar and her leg, she knew immediately that an aftershock must have altered the rock's structure.
They made room for her legs.
Zhen Tian tried to move, and found that the nerves in her legs still obeyed her and she could move them. She wanted to cry.
As long as there's no risk of amputation, that's fine.
It doesn't matter if I get injured.
She even had the mood to make fun of herself in her mind.
She could hear the whimpering sound more clearly at this moment.
A figure flashed through my mind: Right, where's Peach?
She looked around, but there was no one around her.
There were only the two of them in this escape route.
"Peach, peach..." she shouted in all directions.
The whimpering stopped abruptly.
A few seconds later, a voice full of surprise exploded in Zhen Tian's ears: "Tian Tian! Tian Tian!"
"Sweetie, you're not dead yet, Sweetie! Waaaaah... You scared me to death, waaaah..." Yang Tao was blocked by a pillar on the floor below. In her terror, she consciously experienced several more aftershocks.
Her whole body was covered in wounds from the rubble, and the pain was excruciating. But what pained her even more was that Sweetie had been trapped under a large pillar while trying to save her.
She couldn't even bear to imagine what would happen if she were hit by a pillar of that weight.
All she knew was that Sweetie was likely in grave danger.
So when the earthquake stopped, all she could think about was Zhen Tian's horrific death; she was filled with pain and despair.
Especially when she couldn't get a response no matter how she called out to her.
"Don't say anything about dying, don't jinx it." Zhen Tian's voice sounded normal except for being a little weak.
Peach cried loudly: "I called you but you didn't answer me, you scared me to death."
"I fainted and just woke up. How are you?"
Yang Tao looked at the rubble around her and her own wounds: "I'm fine, I just got hit a few times, it doesn't hurt much."
"That's good."
Hearing her say that, Yang Tao started crying again: "Waaah, I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If I hadn't said I couldn't run, you wouldn't have come to save me. I should have been the one who got hit."
"Don't talk nonsense. There's no such thing as 'should' or 'shouldn't'." Zhen Tian couldn't move and could only lie there, staring at the small space above her that was haphazardly supported by rubble and steel bars.
She knew she should sit up so she could more easily dodge if anything went wrong. But she simply didn't have the strength.
She even felt a slight chill.
Zhen Tian stretched out her hands, which were covered in dried bloodstains. Blood was still flowing from her shoulder.
"Blood."
She glanced at it and murmured softly. She probably understood why she felt so cold.
Normally, if she had bled a little, she would have snuggled into Zhizhi's arms for comfort.
She remains remarkably calm despite the significant amount of bleeding she is experiencing.
"I've really grown up, haven't I?" Zhen Tian even smiled.
Yang Tao was frightened by her laughter: "Sweetie, sweetie, are you still there? Are you alright? Are you hurt anywhere?"
"It's nothing." She didn't want to tell Yang Tao; she was already terrified, and there was no point in worrying any further.
"How could you be alright? I saw the big pillar crashing down on you." Yang Tao started to cry again.
She felt that her cowardice was a bad thing. Usually, she was the one protecting Tian Tian, but she never expected that in a crisis, it was Tian Tian who gave her a sense of security.
"I don't feel pain, have you forgotten?" Zhen Tian reassured her, "It's much better to hit me than to hit you. Isn't that right?"
"No, how can that be the same? You don't know how pitiful it is to be in pain. And you still cried even louder because of me..." Yang Tao cried even louder.
"Okay, stop crying. Save your energy, or you'll faint. We won't even know if someone comes to rescue us." Zhen Tian chuckled, but felt herself getting weaker and weaker.
"Will anyone come to rescue us?" Yang Tao choked up. "How could they possibly know we're trapped here..."
"Definitely." Ji Yuzhi's image appeared in Zhen Tian's mind: "Definitely."
"It's been so long, so incredibly long, I don't even remember how long I've been crying." Yang Tao's eyes were swollen. "But there's been no sound. Could it be that they haven't found us...? Could we die here...?"
She felt like crying again.
"Won't."
How did you know?
Zhen Tian smiled, her pale face regaining some color: "Because Zhizhi knew that they would definitely come to save me after the earthquake."
"My idol?" Yang Tao didn't expect this answer: "But my idol can't do anything..."
"No, he can, he will definitely come to save me."
Hearing Zhen Tian's firm voice, even though she was still hesitant, she felt a little more at ease.
"That's great, your idol makes you believe so much." Yang Tao also thought of a man, but that man probably wouldn't have worried about her after the earthquake. He was still worried about Tian Tian.
"Yes, that's great."
Zhen Tian remained calm and composed, without any apparent reason: "As long as we hold on, Zhizhi will definitely find us."
"Um."
...
In a short period of time, even Ji Quanzhou and Liu Ye rushed to the Zhen family from outside.
By this time, it was already broad daylight.
"How did it go?" Ji Quanzhou regretted asking as soon as the question left his mouth.
If there were good news, people wouldn't be sitting here looking so dejected.
What saddened everyone even more was that they couldn't even get anything done.
Liu Ye patted Zhen Lei on the shoulder: "I'll go check on Lu Ti."
Then he went to the bedroom.
Lu Ti was so frightened that she fainted and has not yet woken up.
Liu Ye sat on the edge of the bed, holding Lu Ti's hand and sighing, "Tian Tian will be alright, she'll be alright. You have to hold on too."
She knew her son was also there, so how could she not be worried?
In the face of natural disasters, one could lose their life at any moment.
But she couldn't bring herself to say a single word of objection.
Because Tian Tian is also her daughter.
With nothing to do, the family watched the live broadcast on TV, hoping that the person they were waiting for would be helped out of the room, safe and sound.
Jin Ze's figure flashed past inside.
"Brother Ze has arrived," Lu Yiran suddenly announced.
Everyone saw that figure, resolutely and bravely heading towards the hell that nature brought to people.
